Download or read book Political Theories of the Middle Age written by Otto von Gierke and published by . This book was released on 2014-06-11 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2014 Reprint of 1959 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. One of the most important scholars of the history of political ideas, Von Gierke was professor of law at the University of Berlin, of Breslau and of Heidelberg, and produced monumental studies in the interpretations of legal history. In the present volume, Gierke gives his sharply authoritative treatment of the basic political tenets up to the Renaissance. This classic work is still considered one of the seminal texts in the historiography of political thought. Famed, inter alia, for the elegance and lucidity of Maitland's own expository introduction, "Political Theories of the Middle Age" is concerned in essence with the medieval development of the doctrine of State and Corporation - a concept which, as Maitland indicates, has been prone to misunderstanding by English minds versed in the tradition of the common law. Gierke identifies the peculiar characteristic of medieval political thought as its vision of the universe as one articulated whole, and every being, whether a joint-being (community) or a single-being - as both a part and a whole: his text examines the potentially revolutionary effect upon this of certain crucial intellectual intrusions, derived in part from Roman Law, described by Gierke as 'ancient-modern.'

Book Principles of Government and Politics in the Middle Ages  Routledge Revivals

Download or read book Principles of Government and Politics in the Middle Ages Routledge Revivals written by Walter Ullmann and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2010-01-29 with total page 648 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In many respects this book, first published in 1961, marked a somewhat radical departure from contemporary historical writings. It is neither a constitutional nor a political history, but a historical definition and explanation of the main features which characterised the three kinds of government which can be discerned in the Middle Ages – government by the Pope, the King, the People. The author’s enviable knowledge of the sources – clerical, secular, legal, constitutional, liturgical, literary – as well as of modern literature enables him to demonstrate the principles upon which the papal government, the royal government, and the government of the people rested. He shows how the traditional theocratic forms of government came to be supplanted by forms of government based on the will of the people. Although concerned with the Middle Ages, the book also contains much that is of topical interest to the discerning student of modern institutions. Medieval history is made understandable to modern man by modern methods.

Download or read book Consent Coercion and Limit written by Arthur P. Monahan and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 1987-02-01 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In addition, he deals with the development of these concepts in Roman and canon law and in the practices of the emerging states of France and England and the Italian city-states, as well as considering works in legal and administrative theory and constitutional documents. In each case his interpretations are placed in the wider contexts of developments in law, church, and administrative reform. The result is the first complete study of these three crucial terms as used in the Middle Ages, as well as an excellent summary of work done in a number of specialized fields over the last twenty-five years. The book is of considerable importance not only to medieval studies but to the history of political theory and to political theory itself. It brings together and explains the relevance of a vast amount of material previously known only to a few specialists, documenting Monahan's argument that later political thought has been significantly influenced by medieval formulations of the concepts of consent, coercion, and limit.

Book A History of Political Thought

Download or read book A History of Political Thought written by Walter Ullmann and published by Penguin Group. This book was released on 1965 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between the fifth and twelfth centuries, when vast stretches of Europe were still uninhabited, a society grew up which had to learn the very rudiments of how to manipulate the ordering of public life. It was during and just after this period that many of the basic political concepts of today were formed. In this new study the author employs the latest medieval research -- much of it his own -- to trace the origins and development of political ideas in Western Europe -- ideas as familiar as sovereignty, parliament, citizenship, the rule of law and the state. He shows this development being forged out of the conflict between the descending and ascending theses of government, with their Roman and Germanic sources, and explains the dominance of ecclesiastical powers in medieval society.
